I have received some great gems of web sites from Gwen Hosey, a former colleague, who has just been assigned to the CDC to do population education re: DM and other diseases. She's offered us assistance and links to others involved in similar efforts. Hopefully all of us can use the references, but especially Annie and the web folk.

The Kaiser site was provided by Peg McClure and is another goldmine of info for both pts and providers.

http://kpcmi.org/

www.ihs.gov/medicalprograms/diabetes This is a resource directory and clinical practice guidelines for DM

www.aadenet.org Order professional resource material; comprehensive curriculum. (Gwen thinks this is the best site for this type of info)

www.ada.org Curriculums for pt education; also professional resources.

http://ndep.nih.gov/ National Diabetic Education Program (sponsored by NIH & CDC) to get current scientific based concepts into family practice more rapidly.

?!!? Information overload?!
